Benefits of technology

This patent is about a way to take oral testosterone therapy for men who need it. It involves taking a fixed daily dose of testosterone ester, like testosterone undecanoate, through the mouth. This treatment does not require any adjustment of the dose and is safe and effective with no side effects. The daily dose can be taken as a single dose or split into two or three doses per day. The therapy can be continued or discontinued based on certain biomarkers, like testosterone levels, hemoglobin levels, or PSA levels. Overall, this patent provides a convenient and effective way to treat men with testosterone deficiencies.

Problems solved by technology

A dose of a testosterone product for one patient that provides safe and efficacious testosterone levels may not provide safe and efficacious levels for another patient.

Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods and compositions for testosterone replacement therapy. The methods and compositions employ a fixed dose dosing regimen that does not require titration or dose adjustments and that can provide a therapeutically effective amount of a testosterone ester while avoiding unacceptably high testosterone levels.

Description

PRIORITY DATA[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 62 / 427,103, filed on Nov. 28, 2016, U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 62 / 428,336, filed on Nov. 30, 2016, and U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 62 / 442,612, filed on Jan. 5, 2017, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND[0002]Most testosterone based pharmaceutical products on the market employ dose titration schemes to ensure that patients are safely (e.g., avoiding unacceptably high testosterone levels) and efficaciously treated (e.g., achieving typical eugonadal testosterone levels in hypogonadal patients). Dose titrations are typically required because different patients can absorb and metabolize testosterone based products in substantially different manners. A dose of a testosterone product for one patient that provides safe and efficacious testosterone levels may not provide safe and efficacious levels for another patient.SUMMARY OF INVENTION[0003]Disclosed...
